All of the Easy-Key applications and fonts should be installed or updated using the Download Manager. To obtain this program, please select "Download Manager" from the "Software" menu above.

Latest Versions

From time to time, amendments or enhancements are made to one or other of the program files, and it's always good practice to check that you are using the latest version.

Please select "Latest Versions" from the "Software" menu above to check that you're up to date.

Download Manager and Easy-KeySFMtoHTMLConvertor

In June 2013, a new Easy-Key application was released: the Easy-KeySFMtoHTMLConvertor. Those users who first installed the Download Manager prior to June 2013 will need to download a new DAT file to upgrade their version of the Download Manager before they can install this new application. Please select "DM Upgrade" from the "Software" menu above for further help.

Windows RT

The latest downloads of the Easy-Key suite of programs have been tested without any problems on Windows 8 for a PC or laptop. However, they will not work on Windows RT which comes installed on some tablets. Currently there are no plans to make the Easy-Key software available for Windows RT or other tablet operating systems.
